https://earth.azu.com/~ws11245/cyberchair/wiiat10/scripts/register.php?subarea=

Regular registration covers all the events of WI-IAT'10 during the
four conference days including keynotes, accepted paper presentations, 
and workshops, as well as includes proceedings for one of the conferences 
or its associated workshops.

As usual, WI'10 and IAT'10 will be co-located, providing synergism among
